try this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- quotes.xsl: Transform to Quote.dtd vocabulary -->
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" 
	mlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; 
	xmlns:p="http://www.portfolio.org/Portfolio/Response";>
  <xsl:output method="xml" doctype-system="Quote.dtd" indent="yes"/>
  <xsl:template match="/">
    <Quotes>
      <xsl:for-each select="p:PortfolioResp/p:Quote">
        <Quote Symbol="{p:Symbol}">
          <Time>
            <xsl:value-of select="p:Time"/>
          </Time>
          <Price>
            <xsl:value-of select="p:Price"/>
          </Price>
        </Quote>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </Quotes>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

C:\xml>saxon t.xml t.xslt
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE Quotes
  SYSTEM "Quote.dtd">
<Quotes xmlns:p="http://www.portfolio.org/Portfolio/Response";>
   <Quote Symbol="SUNW">
      <Time>9:51AM</Time>
      <Price>16.06</Price>
   </Quote>
</Quotes>
C:\xml>

I removed the xhtml namespace declaration as confusing for this example
- though obviously it may be required for the real exercise - and they
weren't required in any of the select expressions. I added a namespace
prefix for all the matches. It might be worth checking the excellent
namespace tutorial at
http://zvon.org/xxl/NamespaceTutorial/Output/index.html if this was not
just a typo.

Hope this helps -

Francis.
